and He found an empty place,
He then looked down upon this earth
and saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you
and lifted you to rest,
God's garden must be beautiful
for He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering
and He knew you were in pain,
He knew that you would never
get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
and the hills were hard to climb,
so He closed your weary eyes and
whispered, "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you
but you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you
the day God called you home.
